In February, I dreamed up this outfit, and finally, I got to wear it.
We went to a graduation party for my cousin; she is one of Genevieve's favorites, so I easily cajoled her into making the card.
I was surprised, and not pleased, to see how exactly the yellow slides match the skirt. I'm usually not matchy-matchy.
I love yellow, but I do not wear it next to my face or I look ill. I'm astonished at how many things the yellow skirt goes with in my wardrobe: besides the obvious black and white, I also wear it with blues, pale green and when I'm feeling nervy, fuschia.

I love your outfit -- very fresh and bright -- and the shoes look perfect with it! I also love your shady street with it's old, brick houses.
That's a great skirt---perfect for spring. I like yellow, but I can't wear it, not even far from my face.
You look great!
Maybe you should consider being a leg model.
You look lovely! The yellow is the perfect color... just like the yolk of an egg. I am so thankful that the season of the skirt is upon us!
Margo, that IS a lovely skirt! And you're right - close to our face and it makes us look weird. Especially since I have yellow undertones in my skin. Ugh, I'll look jaundiced. But it is so bright and cheery and young all at once. And with the denim jacket - very edgy. I love. And yes, the shoes go perfectly! And no, not at all matchy-matchy.
Really nice skirt! A nice knee-length a-line skirt is a boon to womanhood. I have a denim skirt I got at a thrift store (after coveting my daughter's exact same one! and it had the tags still on!) that is so terribly worn out now, and I need to somehow make a pattern from it.
You did a beautiful job.
I've always liked that skirt. It's a happy day kind of color
